Never comes easy

My first show was at a dead end bar down on College Street
I was proud to play for nothing back when I was seventeen
I swore my dreams were over when I never played a second gig
Till I found out that the bar shut down for getting rich off of high school kids

A change never comes easy
A change never comes easy

Ten years have come and gone. Slipped out form under me
And now days I play my songs a long way from College Street
Everyday is a brand new place and sometimes I still play for free
It goes to show the good old days ain't as bad as they used to be

A change never comes easy
A change never comes easy

I guess I took it hard as anybody in my shoes
Live and learn hide the scars but don't let it get to you

A change never comes easy
A change never comes easy
